A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to All
Greeting to the Members of the Harish
HIS booklet is placed in your hands by your pastor as a small token of appreciation and gratitude for the marks of esteem given him on the occasion of his sacerdotal jubilee. Its further aim is to give ready and necessary information to our people, and to furnish a registered list of the members of Saint Andrew's parish in this jubilee year. He would ask you, therefore, to preserve it carefully, and to consult it often, so that you may intelligently co-operate with him in the work of the parish, and fulfill your christian duties in the proper manner. He would likewise ask you to patron- ize those who have advertised therein, and who have thus enabled him to issue this book.

Marauley's Tribute to the Church
Macaulay, the celebrated English historian, essayist, poet and statesman, was not fond of Catholicism. His inclinations and prejudices all were against the an- cient Church. Yet no modern writer. who looks upon Christ's Church as a merely human institution, could have paid her a more eloquent tribute. We append the following brief extract from Macaulay's essay reviewing Von Ranke's History of the Popes :
"There is not and there never was on this earth, a work of human policy so well deserving of examination as the Roman Catholic Church. The history of that Church joins together the two great ages of human civilization. No other institu- tion is left standing which carries the mind back to the times when the smoke of sacrifice rose from the Pantheon and when camelopards and tigers bounded in the Flavian amphitheater. The proudest royal houses are but of yesterday. when compared with the line of the Supreme Pontiffs. That line we trace back in an unbroken series from the Pope who crowned Napoleon in the nineteenth century to the Pope who crowned Pepin in the eighth; and far beyond the time of Pepin the august dynasty extends till it is lost in the twilight of fable. The Republic of Venice came next in antiquity. But the Republic of Venice was modern when compared to the Papacy ; and the Republic of Venice is gone, and the Papacy re- mains. The Papacy remains, not in decay, not a mere antique, but full of life and youthful vigor. The Catholic Church is still sending forth to the farthest ends of the world missionaries as zealous as those who landed in Kent with Augustin and still confronting hostile kings with the same spirit with which she confronted Attila. The number of her children is greater than in any former age. Her ac- quisitions in the New World have more than compensated her for what she has lost in the old. Her spiritual ascendency extends over the vast countries which lie between the plains of the Millouri and Cape Horn, countries which, a century hence, may not improbably contain a population as large as that which now inhabits Europe. The members of her communion are certainly not fewer than a hundred and fifty millions ; and it will be difficult to show that all the other Christian sects united amount to a hundred and twenty millions. Nor do we see any sign which indicates that the term of her long dominion is approaching. She saw the com- mencements of all governments and all the ecclesiastic establishments that now exist in the world; and we feel no assurance that she is not destined to see the end of them all. She was great and respected before the Saxon had set foot on Britain, before the Frank had passed the Rhine, when Grecian eloquence still flourished in Antioch, when idols were still worshipped in the temple of Mecca. And She may still exist in undiminished vigor when some traveler from New Zealand shall in the midst of a vast solitude take his stand on a broken arch of London bridge to sketch the ruins of St. Paul's."
(See article on "The Church of Christ" by Cardinal Gibbons, page 8.)
Juhiler De
Out of the heart of this gladsome year. Out of its sunshine. soft and clear. Cometh a sweet, melodious sound, Gathering strength in its onward bound- Gathering bloom on its fragrant wing, As the Jubilee chimes in their belfry swing ; And the year's come back from their silent urns, Like the joyous waves when the tide returns, To break once more on the shores of time With a rapturous lay and a song sublime.
List to the bells, from their airy tower, Scattering joy, like the spring-time flower, Tokens and memories of the day, In the silver twilight far away, When the priest first stood at the altar-shrine, His brow fresh marked with the seal Divine. His heart enriched with the priestly dower, His hand endowed with the priestly power ; And he thus went forth with a sacred claim To do the work in the Master's name.
How well, how nobly he's done his part, With a steadfast will and with kindly heart. With tender love and the ardent zeal That a priest of God alone can feel, While he shed sweet blessing and grace broadcast Through the hallowed reach of that Silver past.
See what the grateful thousands attest Who rise to-day to proclaim him blest- Blest in the flock to his keeping given. Blest in the souls he has trained for heaven ; Blest-thrice Blest-in the great "Well Done" That seems from the azure sky to come.
'Tis the Master's plaudit from heaven's high spheres Blessing and crowning these twenty-five years, And our hearts go out on the wave of song, In the might of their joy as they sweep along, Telling the land and telling the sea 'Tis the hour of a glorious Jubilee.
O Priest of God, 'neath thy arch of years, How grand, how glorious. thy life appears, And while memory points to that hallowed past, Where the tender seeds that thy hand has cast Have struck deep root in the well tilled soil, To reward thy zeal, to restore thy toil. The future largely of promise tells, When the bloom will wave in the ripened dells. When the harvest shall yield thee a hundred-fold, And the Silver Years shall be crowned with Gold.
THE REV. FRANCIS A. ROELL, PASTOR,
The Rev. Francis Anthony Roell was born in Franklin County, Indiana, November 27, 1864. He attended the parochial school at Morris, Indiana, until thirteen years of age, when he entered college at St. Meinrad, Indiana, and after a classical course he took up the study of Philosophy and Theology in St. Meinrad's Seminary.
He received Minor Orders June 15, 1886, and in June, 1887, Subdeaconship and Deaconship. On May 26, 1888, he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Chatard, at St. Meinrad, and celebrated his first Mass in St. Anthony's Church, Morris, June 13.
A few days later he entered upon his priestly labors at St. Mark's, Perry County, attending also the missions at Rome, Derby and Cassidys. Six months later he was transferred to St. Mary's Church, New Albany, where he labored faithfully as assistant for nine years. During a part of this time he also had charge of the Churches at Charlestown and Lexington. At the latter place he built the present Church.
In 1897 Father Roell left New Albany to become pastor of St. Joseph's, Van- derburg County. In May, 1898, he was promoted to Aurora, where he remained (Continued on Page 33.)

The Church of Christ, Which Ja It?
BY CARDINAL GIBBONS.
Christ founded a Church to teach men the way of salvation and commanded all to obey it. He promised that the gates of hell should never prevail against this. Church. (St. Matt. XVI: 8.) That Church, therefore, must be to-day the true Church of God, and teach men truly the way of salvation, or the promise of God has failed. Which is that Church? It is very easy to find out. We know that Christ founded His Church nineteen hundred years ago. That Church. then must be nineteen hundred years old. Any Church. therefore, which is 200 or 400, and not nineteen hundred years old. cannot be the Church of Christ. That is a very simple. test, and in all sufficient one, and a test which only the Catholic Church can stand .. There is only one Church that is nineteen hundred years old, and that is the Roman Catholic Church, which. by the very fact. must be the Church Christ founded, and against which He said the gates of hell should never prevail. There is not one of our Protestant Churches that is 400 years old. Not one of them existed or was ever heard of 400 years ago, and their own historians bear us out in making this statement. Therefore. is it possible that any one of them can be the Church founded by Christ nineteen hundred years ago? This cannot be proved by any argument whatever. The following table showing the ages. founders. and the place of origin of the principles Churches has been compiled. In every instance, except the last, the authority for these statements are non-Catholic writers.

The married woman with a bank account in her own name can justly feel independent. As a rule the wife is the economical mem- ber of the household and as a class they are more saving than men.
A large number of women have bank accounts here and transact their own business.
Would it not be wise to open an account for the wife and allow her to pay all the household expenses by check?

2. No one should leave his seat before the Priest returns to the Sacristy.
3. None but actual members of the choir are allowed in the gallery at any service.
4. All are most earnestly requested to treat strangers with unfailing courtesy in this Church. See that they are provided with seats. Give up your own seat cheerfully. Your action may do more than you ever dreamed of.
CONFESSIONS.
"As the Father hath sent me, I also send you. When He had said this, He breathed on them, and He said to them: Receive ye the Holy Ghost Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven, and whose sins you shall retain are retained. (John XX : 21-23.)
"I will arise, and I will go to my Father, and say to him: Father I have sinned against Heaven and before Thee-I am not worthy to be called Thy son; make me as one of thy hired servants." (Luke XV : 18, 19.)
Confessions are heard every Saturday, from 3:00 to 6:00 p. m., and from 7:30 till all are heard. Also, during the same hours, on Thursdays before the first Fri- day of each month, and on the eves of Holy Days of obligation; likewise every day before the 7:30 o'clock Mass, and on Friday afternoons and evenings.
Do not crowd too near the confessionals, and after confession take a pew in another part of the Church.

HOLY COMMUNION.
"This is my body; this is my blood."
"Behold I am with you, even unto the Consummation of the world."
After Confession comes Communion to strengthen the wounded soul weak- ened by repeated falls from grace. "He that eateth Me abideth in Me aud I in Him," says our Divine Lord when speaking of the great Sacrament of the Eucharist. Here we have some special grace peculiar to the Sacrament we receive, as in all the other six, but we have all grace in possessing the author of grace Himself. No mind can conceive, nor can tongue describe the infinite love shown us in this Banquet of Love surpassing all understanding. We can but humbly cast ourselves upon our faces before it, and like St. Thomas cry out, "My Lord and My God."
Holy Communion was instituted by Jesus Christ for the particular purpose of strengthening that which is weak within us and thus enable us to successfully con- tend against the powers of darkness that assail us on every side in our journey towards eternal life. With all the ineffable love of His Sacred Heart He has di- vested Himself of every mark of glory and majesty that we might not fear to come to Him for refreshment where He remains with us always "even unto the consum- mation of the world."
There can be no excuse for our weakness when we have at hand such an unfailing source of strength to supply all that may ever be wanting to us. Frequent Communion must of its very necessity correct our faults and sanctify our lives.
It is an edifying sight in this Parish to see the habit of weekly and even daily Communion growing among our people. God grant that this certain mark of the

THE REV. CHARLES L. KABEY, ASISSTANT.
Father Kabey is a native of Greensburg, Ind. His classical and theological studies were made at St. Meinrad's College and Seminary, where he was ordained to the Priesthood on May 21, 1910.
His first appointment was as assistant at St. John's Church, Vincennes, after which he was given charge of St. Bernard Church, Fort Branch, for two years, when his marked ability prompted his transfer to the broader field of St. An- drew's Parish, where he entered upon his labors as assistant, August 20. 1913.
love of His Eucharistic Presence may still continue to grow until frequent Com- munion becomes the rule rather than the exception! Then might we exclaim with St. Paul : "I live now not I, but Christ liveth in me."
Holy Communion is administered at all Masses except the Sunday High Mass and Funeral Masses, and at other times by appointment.
In receiving Communion always go as far as possible toward the center of the railing. This will prevent the unseemly crowding at the ends when there are many Communicants, and when there are but few to receive. it will do away with the ludicrous spectacle of two Communicants kneeling at the extreme ends of the rail, to the great inconvenience of the Priest distributing Communion.
N. B. The proper time to come forward, if you intend to receive, is when the PRIEST communicates-not later.

HIS HOLINESS POPE PIUS X. JOSEPH SARTO. SUPREME PONTIFF NOW GLORIOUSLY REIGNING.
The two hundred and sixty-fourth successor of St. Peter was born at Riese, in the diocese of Treviso, June 2, 1835; ordained priest December 18, 1858; conse- crated Bishop of Mantua. November 10, 1884; created and proclaimed Cardinal and Patriarch of Venice, June 15, 1893; elected Pope, August 4, 1903; crowned, August 9.
BAPTISM.
"Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God." John III : 5.
This sacrament should be received as soon after birth as practicable, and pa- rents who defer the baptism of their children for several weeks, easily become guilty of a grievous sin of negligence. Sponsors should be practical Catholics. Non-Catholics are not permitted by the laws of the Church to be God parents, neither are apostate Catholics, nor members of secret societies condemned by the Church.
Since not only the family name, but also the maiden name of the mother, as well as the exact date of the child's birth are to be recorded, it is desirable that the father himself be present to give this information.
According to custom, an offering to the Priest should be made by parents and God parents.

THE RIGHT REVEREND FRANCIS S. CHATARD, D. D., BISHOP OF INDIANAPOLIS.
Let the baptismal name of your child be that of some Saint.
Baptism is administered Sundays at 2:30 o'clock; by special arrangement also at other times, except Sunday morning.
In danger of death, any person can and should baptize by simply following this short instruction: Take common water. Pour it on the head of the person to be baptized. Whilst pouring say the words: "I baptize thee in the name of the Father. and of the Son. and of the Holy Ghost."
If a child has been baptized privately by a lay person. this fact must be made known to the Priest before he begins the ceremonies of baptism.
If a child has been baptized at home by a Priest, it must be brought to the Church without unnecessary delay so that the ceremonies of Christening, prescribed by the Church, may be supplied.
ENGAGEMENTS AND MARRIAGES OF CATHOLICS. AN ABSTRACT OF SOME NEW REGULATIONS.
An engagement may be private, and, as a contract, it ought to be fulfilled. There need not be any in writing before marriage. It is good to have the contract in writing, signed by both parties, attested by the Pastor, or two witnesses. Then it is a legal safeguard, and a bar for either party against marrying a blood relation of the other within the first degree.
No marriage is valid for a Catholic unless contracted before the Pastor of the

If there be no impediments, any Parish Priest validly assists at any marriage within the limits of his Parish. But if the parties live outside the limits of his Parish, the marriage indeed is valid. but his action is improper. unless he had the permission of the Pastor of either party.
The marriage ceremony ought to be performed in the Parish Church of the bride.
By Catholic is meant anyone ever baptized in the Catholic rite. Once a Catholic, a Catholic forever, as to the marriage laws.
Besides duly recording the marriage, the Pastor is to note the fact in the register of Baptisms after the name of each party; and if the parties were baptized in places far apart, he is bound to send a copy of the marriage record to the Pastors of the places where each party was baptized, that it may be recorded there under the baptismal record of each. Or he may send the copy to the Chancery.
